Yes it was addressed by me but as you say science is not your thing. Combined with the El Niño, 2023 is now more likely than not to be the warmest year on record. The sea has also hit record temperatures and already broken records despite not being the end of the year yet.

Absolutely. The three hottest years I experienced were respectively: Laos, 2014 France, 2003 Spain, 1997 This year was pretty mild in Thailand, even April was not as bad as some other years I have known. My acquaintances in France and the UK told me it was pretty hot in July/August, but not as bad as 2003.

Swerve.....lol You do realize local weather is very different from Global Temperature change right? Firstly here's a little logic for you. Its impossible to make a claim that 2023 is no hotter than any other years as 2023 is not over yet, even science cannot make that claim. What it can do is give a year to date and currently it is ranked third warmest. Its also likely it will become the hottest. https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/monitoring/monthly-report/global/202307/supplemental/page-1 This graphic compares the year-to-date temperature anomalies for 2023 (black line) to what were ultimately the ten warmest years on record: 2016 (1st), 2020 (2nd), 2019 (3rd), 2017 (4th), 2015 (5th), 2022 (5th), 2018 (7th), 2021 (7th), 2014 (9th), and 2010 (10th). Each month along each trace represents the year-to-date average temperature anomaly. In other words, the January value is the January average temperature anomaly, the February value is the average anomaly of both January and February, and so on.

Yes not too bad in Phuket to, here's a few more places in the world where it was cooler in July 2023. Temperatures were near to cooler than average across parts of the central U.S. and Canada, Greenland, western Russia, Pakistan and northern India, western Oceania, southern Africa and Antarctica. But then of course you need to get that in perspective with the rest of the world to get the mean Global temp. July was actually the hottest on record globally. https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/monitoring/monthly-report/global/202307 Edited September 3, 2023 by Bkk Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tippaporn Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 (edited) The technology isn't here yet. But never you mind. We'll go full bore ahead anyway and ignore any disastrous consequences. Tell me that's not cultish behaviour. BTW, if I ever owned an EV, and I never will, I wouldn't be so stupid as to park it anywhere near my house knowing that if the battery lights up, and there's no guarantee that it can't happen, and if parked in my garage then my house would catch on fire, too. Som nam na. Shouldn't EV's be considered fire hazards and laws passed to prohibit parking them anywhere where they could catch anything on fire? Nah. Of course not.

It's all about votes and social engineering. If they really thought CO2 was going to kill us, why are they not building nukes as fast as they can? California is demolishing three perfectly good hydro-electric dams, mandating solar panels and banning gas stoves.

Anyone actually read my posts know I said that climate change IS happening, always has and always will. As to whether it is man made or not, or the speed of change, I just don't care as IMO nothing we can do will make any difference. The CO2 already in the atmosphere isn't going away any time soon, so whatever effect it has is going to continue. BTW did you know that the biggest amount of greenhouse gas is water vapour? However they can't tax that so CO2 has to suffice for the IMO biggest con of my lifetime. There are 8 billion ( and rising fast ) people on the planet- how many of them are going to use an EV, LOL. If governments actually cared, they'd be building nuclear power plants to replace oil fired power stations, but they are not, and even NZ has a whacking great fossil fuel powered station supplying Auckland. I don't recall ever using the word "mitigation"- you are making that up. What I actually said was we should learn to live with it, and that doesn't mean solar panels or windmills, though I have nothing against solar panels per se.

And every mention of climate change in a "news" article must be assumed to be absolute fact. Wildfires are not the result of idiotic and or incompetent forest and water management that someone can be taken to task for, but on climate change, which we can blame our opponents for. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
